Expertise

Hede Architects Pty. Ltd. work on a range of projects. We offer full services on all projects from yield study, site analysis, through to post-occupancy evaluation.

The practice seeks to provide the broad skills of an Architect to any project rather than become a production line for one type of building.

COMMUNITY
We have a strong reputation for consultation where the architect leads a process of bringing together the many users and service providers. We design community buildings for several Councils (including over 20 childcare centres for the City of Melbourne, City of Hobson's Bay and private organisations).
 
   
 
EDUCATIONAL
In all levels of education buildings we provide innovative solutions within the tight budgets. Our projects include all levels of education as well as special buildings for disabled students.
 
 
RESIDENTIAL
From single house renovations in Melbourne suburbs through to the conversion of the Capitol Theatre building in Swanston Street to apartments. The range is extensive with full design of all aspects through to furniture and artworks.
   
 
COMMERCIAL AND RETAIL
Since the 1980s Hede Architects have designed over $100 million worth of office buildings. These have involved new buildings and recycling such as the 'X' building in Richmond - 11,000m2 plus carpark. Retail projects range from large supermarkets through to individual shops, we developed the prototype for the new Coles Supermarket and documented over 150 Franklins Supermarkets around Australia.
     
 
INTERIORS
These projects range from Norwich Union Offices throughout Australia to new interiors to many St. Kilda Road buildings. We masterplanned Norwich head office involving up to 700 people and 6 floors. Full furniture design through to artworks commissioning and installation
    
 
INDUSTRIAL
From documenting Toyota's parts supply building of 50,000 m2 through to a new building for up to 35 robots on car parts diecasting. The buildings change but the quality of the service remains at the same high standard.
